How to grow Nosento Lime Green African Marigolds seeds

Choose Your Planting Method

• Indoors: Start indoors 4-6 weeks before the last frost.
• Outdoors: Direct sow outdoors after all danger of frost has passed.

Prepare Your Materials

• Seed-starting trays or pots (if indoors)
• Well-draining potting mix
• Humidity dome or plastic wrap to hold moisture
• Spray bottle for misting

Sowing the Seeds

• Sow 1/4 inch deep and cover with fine soil; darkness aids germination.
• Keep the soil evenly moist until seedlings emerge.

Provide the Right Conditions

• Light: bright light for seedlings
• Temperature: soil temperature of 70-85°F (21-29°C)

Germination

• Seeds sprout in about 5-10 days in warm soil.
• Thin or transplant seedlings once they have a few true leaves.

Transplanting

• Harden off before setting plants out after the last frost.
• Space plants 8-12 inches apart for bushy, well-branched plants.

Care Tips

• Sun: full sun for the strongest stems and fullest bloom.
• Water: keep the soil evenly moist while young; established plants tolerate short dry spells.
• Deadhead spent flowers regularly to encourage continuous bloom.
• Feeding is usually unnecessary in ordinary garden soil.

Bloom Time:

Summer until frost; first flowers typically appear 60-70 days after sowing.
